“Great staff at Feeling Italy”

Left on 01/02/2014 for a stay in November 2013 | A FlipKey verified reviewerReviewed Jan 2, 2014Stayed Nov 2013

The staff at Feeling Itaily were just excellent and very kind to us
My husbands wallet was stolen at Naples train station!!
One of the staff took us to the police station when we arrived in Sorrento and was so very helpful - Thank you

I know we were arriving late in the November - but the appartment was not what we expected
The kitchen was not very clean - the showers could have being updated
It was just a holiday appartment without any care or attention
Just making money for the owner but needed a complete makeover

“Grood location, spacious accommodation”

Left on 10/03/2013 for a stay in September 2013 | A FlipKey verified reviewerReviewed Oct 3, 2013Stayed Sep 2013

This apartment was the largest we stayed in while in Italy. The rooms were generous and there was more than enough space to accommodate 2 adult couples (though I'm sure kids would have ample room too).

Excellent service with a great introduction to the area from the management agent.

Had all the requirements for our stay, but I must mention the firm bed. I know a lot of European beds are firm, but this one was one of the firmest. At times it felt like I was sleeping on a hard surface. My husband and i ended up using a quilt Tripple folded as an underlay, then it was manageable.

“Piacevole Sorrento”

Left on 08/01/2013 for a stay in July 2013 | The O'Hara FamilyReviewed Aug 1, 2013Stayed Jul 2013

We had such a nice time in the Caruso apartment. It was clean, spacious and complete with all of the essentials.The Feeling Italy folks were prompt, efficient
and very nice. We enjoyed our short walk to the town center and were able to walk to markets, cafe's and restaurants. We hope to come back in the future. Mille grazie!

“Very Nice apartment”

Left on 08/01/2013 for a stay in July 2013 | A FlipKey verified reviewerReviewed Aug 1, 2013Stayed Jul 2013

The apartment was bigger than the pictures show. Two nice size bedrooms and air conditioning in all rooms. The location was very convenient to downtown, but after a day of touring on foot, the small hill to the apartment seemed larger than it was in fact. Groceries were very close and the neighborhood was nice. All in all, a very nice apartment close to town, but with the solitude provided by a short walk from the city center.

“Lovely apartment within walking distance of Sorrento”

Left on 07/14/2013 for a stay in June 2013 | A FlipKey verified reviewerReviewed Jul 14, 2013Stayed Jun 2013

I booked this apartment for me and a girlfriend and we required two bedrooms and two bathrooms within walking distance of Sorrento town. We were met by the agent at the train station who negotiated a good taxi price to take us to the apartment and she proceeded to show us everything we would need for our stay. There was also a welcome pack of milk, juice, crackers, jam and coffee. The apartment was spacious and very clean and had two bathrooms and two bedrooms as well as two balconies with air conditioning in the bedrooms. One of the bathrooms doubled up as the laundry room as it had the washing machine in it but was more than adequate for our needs. The beds were very large and comfortable. The kitchen had enough utensils and equipment to cook a meal and it even had a kettle...kettles are not used in Italy, so this was a welcome surprise. The apartment is set at a fairly busy junction at the top of a small hill but as the apartment is not road facing, we heard no traffic at all. There are two supermarkets and a greengrocers within a 5 minute walk from the apartment. There was wifi as well which was a great bonus. The electricity went off once but the agents arrived very quickly to reset the main fuse and we then knew what we had to do should the electricity go again - but it didn't. We were very happy with the apartment and the attention given to us by the agents and we will definitely book with Feeling Italy again.

“Lovely apartment in Sorrento!”

Left on 07/05/2013 for a stay in July 2013 | MerylReviewed Jul 5, 2013Stayed Jul 2013

The Caruso apartment was lovely, it was large, bright, clean and well maintained. My husband and I along with our two adult children stayed for three nights. We were met by a knowledgeable, friendly woman who showed us the ropes and told us about the area. The apartment is well within walking distance to the town center. We would definitely recommend the Caruso apartment.

“Spacious apartment centrally located”

Left on 07/04/2013 for a stay in June 2013 | montrealersabroadReviewed Jul 4, 2013Stayed Jun 2013

This was a lovely spacious apartment overlooking a lemon orchard around 15 minutes walk from the train station. It has 2 bathrooms and is bright. It is an uphill walk to reach it, but not too difficult. There was a snack left out for us, which was a nice treat. The agent was polite, but there was some difficulty reaching her by text. Other than that, everything was great. There was a grocery store 5 minutes down the hill from the apartment, and downtown Sorrento was about 5 minutes further.

“We absolutely loved Sorrento, apartment was beautiful and Feelin”

Left on 06/09/2013 for a stay in May 2013 | A FlipKey verified reviewerReviewed Jun 9, 2013Stayed May 2013

Feeling Italy was extremely helpful and even arranged our car transfers from Sorrento to Praiano and to Naples.
The apartment was clean, spacious, beautiful and only a short walk to city center. Everyone we encountered in Sorrento was friendly and helpful. We look forward to a future visit.

“For three adults, the space was excellent, ligh and airy, good p”

Left on 05/23/2013 for a stay in April 2013 | MikejReviewed May 23, 2013Stayed Apr 2013

The rooms were spacious and storage generous. The view from the balcony very interesting. The uphill walk to the apartment was tiring at the end of a busy day, the lift is a great plus. When it is dark the lack of automatic lights on the landing was disconcerting. The recycling instructions not really clear. The area of Sorrento, with all the famous sites, beautiful weather and exotic plants and architecture, ensured a great holiday. The on-line booking was very easy and friendly, we felt very welcome.

“Convenient”

Left on 05/02/2013 for a stay in April 2013 | A FlipKey verified reviewerReviewed May 2, 2013Stayed Apr 2013

Great location only a few very walkable blocks from the central plaza in Sorrento and the train station. The apartment is roomy but the furnishings are very minimal. The kitchen was lacking many basic utensils including a coffee maker. Could use some updating and a good cleaning. There is a great fish market up the street and a nice, quiet Pizzeria as well. No need for a car. Sergio and angela were very attentive and helpful.

“Well located”

Left on 12/27/2012 for a stay in December 2012 | A FlipKey verified reviewerReviewed Dec 27, 2012Stayed Dec 2012

Apartment well located and good size. Facilities a little basic with only comfortable seating for 3 persons eventhough sleeps 7. otherwise upright chairs. Reliant on aC located in bedrooms for overall warmth. Limited ventilation as no port windows therefore some overnight condensation incurred. Tv old and poor picture. No chopping boards or garlic press in kitchen (I am told) also if aC/oven on use of kettle trips power. This was annoying as reset switch on ground floor and not made aware of this issue. Parking limited nearby therefore feel garage facility is a must if driving. Overall OK for location but needs to be made more homely.

“Excellent central location and setting for a long weekend in Sor”

Left on 09/27/2012 for a stay in September 2012 | MimmyMacReviewed Sep 27, 2012Stayed Sep 2012

We booked as a party of five for a wedding we were attending in Sorrento. Feeling Italy were able to arrange transfers from Naples airport with an extremely helpful taxi driver. The representative then met us at the apartment with all the paperwork. Everyone was friendly and helpful, and able to book further taxis to get us to the wedding venue. Very comfortable apartment, with two bathrooms which was essential with so many people getting ready at once! Didnt use much of the kitchen facilities as we were only there a short time, but it was well equipped and clean. Five minutes walk from the centre and supermarket, would definalty stay again if we were visiting Sorrento! Next time if there were so many of us we would ask for an additional key, as it was slightly akward arranging meeting times etc, but not too much of a big deal.

“Change of venue to Villa la Terraza”

Left on 08/03/2012 for a stay in July 2012 | LPReviewed Aug 3, 2012Stayed Jul 2012

Thank you to Sergio and Pedro who worked quickly to relocate me and my girlfiends to Villa La Terraza..they were right a wonderful surprise. We had a small apartment that was located in a 18th century villa, whose large terraza had the Mediterreanian spread before it. Views of Vesuvius, the amalfi coast, Sorrentos marina welcomed us daily and only steps from the main piazza. Will definitely be back. Also charming was the villas manager, Andrea azzariti, 5th generation family. Grazie!!!

“A quiet retreat from lively Sorrento.”

Left on 07/09/2012 for a stay in June 2012 | Mike and PaulaReviewed Jul 9, 2012Stayed Jun 2012

The service we received from, Sergio, Piero and Chris was excellent. The apartment was very nicely furnished, spacious, clean and well looked after. (They even provided us with a "new" kettle and toaster as per our request - very kind).
It was only about 10 minutes to the centre of Sorrento and another 5 minutes to the sea.
We have no complaints what-so-ever. The only down side to the location is up a slight hill walking back, but this is no problem if you are reasonably fit.

“Enjoyable holiday”

Left on 06/22/2012 for a stay in April 2012 | A FlipKey verified reviewerReviewed Jun 22, 2012Stayed Apr 2012

The service we received from Piero and Chris was excellent.We loved the apartment but we think that the position on the steep hill is not suitable for older travellers and this is not highlighted in the description.

“Caruso, lovely but cold”

Left on 05/29/2012 for a stay in December 2010 | Judith HoganReviewed May 29, 2012Stayed Dec 2010

We stayed at the Caruso apartment in December, 2010. The apartment itself was lovely but our main problem was the lack of heating and the very inadequate blankets, doonas and pillows. When we arrived the apartment was cold. There was one very small portable gas heater and an electric heater, which blew the fuses if we used it. There were no blankets on any of the beds and not enough pillows, which we didn't discover until after the agent had left. We did manage to contact him and he came back with a couple of blankets - still woefully inadequate - and was uncontactable for the rest of our three night stay. I think Caruso would be a great place in summer but beware of staying there in winter!

We just want to specify that now Caruso has a cold/warm air-conditioned system (in the whole apartment).

“Great location, but needs some updating”

Left on 05/28/2012 for a stay in May 2012 | A FlipKey verified reviewerReviewed May 28, 2012Stayed May 2012

Title is a little confusing. While convenient, apartment is not in the city center, but about a 10-15 min walk downhill to Piazza Tasso. Also about the same distance to the train station. This apartment is on the 3rd floor offering a lot of sunlight and view of the lemon orchard below, and the bay in the far distance, but I would not call it "panoramic".

If you're coming in by bus from Naples airport or by train, both drop you off at the above-mentioned train station but you'll have to take a cab to the apartment with all your luggage. It's a short ride, but costly, at about 25 euros.

Nonetheless, the apartment worked well for two couples. Sergio at Feeling Italy contacted us ahead of time offering to buy anything we needed. Do it. We spent about 25 euros to get some bread, cheese, coffee, milk, beer, etc. He also offered suggestions on where to get pizza that night.

The furniture is worn and could be replaced. There were no instructions on how to operate the washing machine or when to take out different types of trash & recycling. On one day, all the electricity went out and we had to call the office where we were instructed to go to the ground floor and find the affected meter. It was difficult.

We called Sergio before leaving and he made perfect arrangements for a taxi to take us to Naples airport with a 4:30am pickup.

“Great stay in Sorrento”

Left on 05/15/2011 for a stay in April 2011 | LWReviewed May 15, 2011Stayed Apr 2011

This apartment is very spacious, bright, clean and comfortable. It is up the hill a bit, which takes you out of the busy tourist area, but very close to walk to everything you need, including several grocery stores, restaurants and the train station. Beds very comfortable and it was quiet at night.

A couple of things to be aware of, no toilet paper or soap was supplied, nor was a dish drying towel, we had to use a bath towel. Also the propane for the gas stove ran out, and there is no way of knowing when the tank is getting low. This was inconvenient in the middle of making dinner at 8 pm and no refill was possible until the next day.
Our host Pierro, was terrific, he picked us up from the train station, showed us around and was always accessible.
Overall, very good experience.

“A perfect vacation in Sorrento!”

Left on 05/09/2011 for a stay in April 2011 | A FlipKey verified reviewerReviewed May 9, 2011Stayed Apr 2011

everything was great. The apartment had all the supplies necessary and was really close to the city center. The persons from Feeling Italy were very nice and provided for everything. Sorrento is a great place to stay if you want to visit the amalfitan coast, Capri and Pompei.
